At no time in the eighteen years that Enderby has been celebrating Victoria Day were efforts more earnestly made to make the celebration a success: A. E. Taylor and Robt. Peel at their own expense, went to Revelstoke last week and quickly arranged the-matter of special train, baseball and lacrosse. ' Revelstoke will-send its crack baseball*-and lacrosse teams, and with them will, come one of the biggest crowds that Revelstoke has ever sent into the Okanagan. Armstrong will send her infantry band, lacrosse team and hose-reel team;' and with them .will come- her public-spirited citizens. - Salmon Arm will send her foot ball team and'her lovers, of sport. Vernon was - to have sent her football team, but En: derby was hot'ableto employ .the Vernon band in addition to the Armstrong ��������������������������� and Enderby bands and so Vernon's footballers withdrew. But this isn't the genuine Vernon.spirit, and, inspite of the puny pickled pique, Vernonites of the broader spirit promise to fill' the cars for Enderby, just as Enderby fills the cars for Vernon. The program of sports will crowd the day full. On Cliff street, before the big events are called, the children's races will be held. This will give the boys and girls a chance to win spend- ingjrioney for the day._ They will enter the races" whillTfresn and strong, not late in the day, tired and worn. After the children's races will come the firemen's wettest. For this contest the prizes will be 350 and $25. Following the wet test, which will be held on Cliff street, the march will be made to the recreation grounds. Here many improvements have been made to add to the convenience and comfort of spectators and players. There will be no more crowding into the field, and no more danger from foul balls. The grand stand is substantially roofed and otherwise improved. The refreshment booths are situated within the curling rink, where ample accommodation will be provided for the crowds which are expected. Here Revelstoke's best baseball team will play Enderby, and the Revelstoke lacrosse boys will contest the field with Armstrong. Here the Salmon Arm footballers will wallop the bigskin with Enderby. These contests promise to be the swiftest ever pulled off on the Enderby grounds. The field was never in better shape. The Armstrong Infantry band and the Enderby City band will provide the music on the grounds and there is every assurance that there will be an' 'abundance of tlie best. . ,'' In addition to the regular program cf sport, our-horsemen promise to put on four hours of horse-racing for the edification of any interested in the sport. Word comes from Revelstoke, Armstrong and-Salmon Arm tact these places will send:the biggest crowds they ever turned out to Enderby. The Eckardts, Swiss Bell Ringers, will appear in ' K. P. Hall as the closing' event -;pf the 24th of May .celebration. The Enderby City Band will play them here, and at the close of the performance a dance will be given. The Eckardts aro well spoken' of by the provincial press. ' It is one of the best musical aggregations that ever held the boards at the Auditorium,'' says the Cranbro Herald.

Thus writes "Bruce"_.n the Saturday Sunset. And then he proceeds to elucidate. British Columbia imports $7,000,000" worth of farm produce annually, in spite of the fact that we have the most productive lands in the world; the most equable climate in North America, .and can oner attractions, to the farmer and settler such as few places in the world can command. And yet, with all of these advantages, settlement and farm development has proceeded at a snail's pace. We import butter from Ontario and New Zealand; eggs from Ontario and Alberta; bacon from Chicago and Alberta; flour from the prairies; beef from the prairies, and even hay. It is pointed out that the facilities and encouragement offered by the government in respect to settlement on the land are not one whit better than they were 37 years ago. In this connection "Bruce'' refers to the absurd policy of holding in a state of idle wastefulness so much land in the name of Indian reserves.. * 'Steps should be taken," says he, "to throw open for settlement all the Indian reserves not in actual use by the Indians. It is a notorious fact that Indian reserves occupy large tracts of the most valuable lands in British Columbia and that the Indians have under their control anywhere from five to ten times as much land as they use or need. The writer has seen dozens of Indian reserves where not one-te enth of the land was- utilized and where in many cases the lands, were totally abandoned.- He has seen gardens "and orchards surrounding deserted cabins fallen into decay, overgrown . with' forest trees, where no Indian has set fout for years, and where all other, available lands ^had been taken up by whites, and were-under cultivation.' Our present Indian policy does nothing for the Indians and-holds back the wheels of progress." ' ���������������������������If "Bruce" will come to the Okanagan we will show him a tract, of' 3,000. acres' of the best land out of doors, upon which seven Indians leaf and get a living. We wilhihb w-hinranotherH;-ra^ held by less than -200 Indians, and not more than 200 acres under cultivation'or utilized in any way. We will show him an Indian settlement of something less than 200, where there is no school, no industry- nothing to teach the younger generation anything but sloth, slop, slovenliness and slivers/ "It is a" crying--shame-that -the government persists in this policy of darkness and sloth. To say that the Indian can't or -won't elevate himself, simply shows our ignorance of Poor Lo. The Indian will learn if given the chance. But the policy of our government encourages indolence and sets a premium on idleness and filth. The only civilizing influences set about the Indians are. venereal diseases and the church. By disease the tribe is robbed of its virility, and the church���������������������������is used more as a place where the cinch is tightened than as a place where souls are enlightened. Speaking of the Enderby Indians and reserve, we, are confident that if the government would open to the whiteman and sell for the Indians 5,000 acres of the 6,000 reserved, and with the proceeds establish a fund to assist and educate the tribe, the Indians would do as other tribes have clone, and get more out of themselves, more out of life, more out of their land���������������������������they would become of some use to the community. And the country would be developed instead of being wet-blanketed by reserves. Jas.

I thought it must be something swell. "'Say, did you ever skin down an onion until there was nothing left but the smell? That's me, son. After I had ripped off about j. pound and a half of fancy paper, all I found was a bottle of cologn.���������������������������the kind she uses, at tnat. ������������������ "Oli, tliat was easy. I didn't start anything about that. But when it comes New Year's she up and: "'We'll make an agreement,' she says, ���������������������������for the next year,' she say?, 'that neither of us shall criticise the other.' she says, 'no .natter what tlie other does,'" she says. 'Fault finding breeds unpleasantness,'" she says, just like that. /Tumping J ehosophat! As though that was any news to me. And me mar- vied, by gracious, and to her at that!

"And," she says, ''the first one that finds fault wilh the other shall do cx- hcre is of the same general character that they have at tlie sacred Sunday night smoking concerts that you occasionally .attend when you feci a need of congenial society. Apparently I have to stay at home and take care of this house or the first thing 1 know it will be used for kennels. I'm not going to waste my strength talking to you, but this is not the end. You will hear more of this.' "And then she started upstairs. And T suddenly came to. "'Wile,' I. says, 'if J had your disposition I'd take it out in the back yard nnd air it once in a while.

'��������������������������� 'No,' she says, 'you lose. I wa* spcaking of your health, which will be ruined by the smoke,' she says. 'You, however, have openly criticised me,' she says, "as I knew you would,' she says, 'and for one year what I say goes,' she says. 'Do you hear me, Henry?' until I die, .[ suppose.

There was the exact spot where your Uncle Kenny could see himself g'v.'ng a swell imitation of a man winning something. Honest. I couldn't loo .'at it any other way. It was like taking crumbs from a canary. "See what I mean? I never had the nerve to find fault with her. It isn't any use being foolhardy with women. J .1. it went against common sense to suppose that she would go a whole year, without taking a few cracks at me. That's a female woman person's nature like, though of course I've been so well home broken I hardly ever give her a regular chance. Nol if I see her coming. '"Well. sir. I grabbed it.

But when I was starring in domestic comedy seven evenings and three matinees a week, trying to dig tip nerve and financial backing enough to make my wife that wasn't then be my wife that is now, I used to shave so close I had to grow a new face every fortnight. "I used to put my trousers between the matresscs to give 'em a crease sharp enough to cut all my poker friends, and I used to wear shirts that looked like "I'm a lonesome kind of an old thing, and I wasn't strong for that reform idea in tho first place.

"And, son, you can't altogether blame 'em. It's a raw deal any way you look at it. There is simple Sarah, main squeeze of her own destiny, and the thrice potent grand arch boss of her own family. She's mother's onliest one and a rcvy superior and remarkable female lady girl person. "Then along comes a dandy dude with a seal ring and a lot of bad habits.

He's nearly married to death; and, take it from me, son, if the average man and the average woman knew what was coming off when the minister said 'Let no man put asunder' they'd throw two double mutual pair of fatal fits right on the altar steps. "Well, sir, they find it out after a while. Marriage is a liberal education, all light.

Railroads Obliged to Pay Out Millions Every Year for Damages. It is said that the amount paid out by the roads of the United States in 1907 for freight claims was ������������������24,000,000. These claims originate from various causes, such as defective cars, careless employees and incorrect classification, but one agent says that on his road improper handling is responsible for about 22 per cent, of money paid out for freight claims. "Another feature contributing very largely to the amounts wc pay out for loss aud damage," said the claim agent, "is defective cars. Our rules say that each agent must inspect the cars. Now the term inspection covers a multitude of features. It docs not mean that the running gear of the car only is to be inspected but it means that" we want to satisfy ourselves that thc body of thc car and the roof of the car are tight enough to carry the load without damage by water. __^I___h.a_ve__in_=.!ny__n:in(L_a^certain_as'ent- got at a flour loading station whom I found on top of a box car, and in response to my inquiry as lo what he was doing up there he advised me he was examining the roof���������������������������and I want to say that agent has been promoted because" he was tho proper link in the chain.

(This masterpiece of forensic eloquence is extracted from the address of Daniel Web..ter fo the jury in the Joseph White murder trial at Salem.) "'Against the prisoner at the bar. as an individual, I cannot have the,.ii.rhl- cst prejudice. I would not do him the smallest injury or injustice. But J. do not affect to be indifferent to the discovery, and the punishment, of this deep guilt. I cheerfully share in the opprobrium, how much soever it may be, which is east on those who feel aud manifest, an. anxious concern, that all who hud a part in planning, or a hand in executing, (his deed of midnight assassination, may be brought lo answer for their enormous crime, at the bar of public justice. "The deed was executed with a degree of self-possession and steadiness .ijunl to the wickedness wiili which it was planned. Thc circumstances, now clearly in evidence, spread out the whole scene.- before us. Deep sleep had fallen upon the destined victim, and on all beneath his roof���������������������������a healthful old man to whom sleep was sweet���������������������������the first sound slumbers of the night held him in their soft but strong embrace. "The assassin enters, through the window already prepared, into an mi: .c-u- ' pied apartment. ' Willi noiseless foot he paces the lonely hall, half lighted bv the moon; he winds up the ascent of the stairs, and reaches the door of the. chamber. Oi' this he moves the lock, by soft and continued pressure, till it turns on its hinges without noise; and he enters and beholds his victim before him. "The room was uncommonly open to the admission of light. The faee of the innocent sleeper "was turned from the murderer, and the beams of the moon, resting on the gray locks of his aged temple, showed, hini where to strike. The fatal blowis given! and the victim passes, without a struggle, or a motion, from the repose of sleep to the repose of death! "It is thc assassin's purpose to make sure work; and he yet plies thc da������������������__er, though it was obvious that life had been destroyed by the blow of the bludgeon! He even raises the aged arm, that hc may not fail iii his aim at the heart^nd replaces it again over the wounds of the poniard! To finish the picture. In. explores the wrist, for the pulse! Ke feels for it, and ascertains that it beat., no longer- It is accomplished. Tlie deed is done, lie retreats, ..traces his steps to tlie window, passes out through it, as he came in. and escapes. He has done the murder���������������������������no eye has .seen him. n. ear ha,, heard liim. Thc secret is hi* own. AND IT IS SAFE! ' ' ' "Ah! gentlemen, that was a dreadful mistake, such a secret CAN T>_ SARI. NOWHERE! The whole creation of God has neither nook nor corner where the guilty man can bestow it and say it is safe. Not to speak of that eye which glances through all disguises, and beholds everything, as in the splendor of noon ���������������������������such secrets of guilt are never safe from detection even by men. True it is. generally speaking, that .nurdcr will out.' True it is, that Providence hath so 'ordained, and doth so govern thing;, that those who break the great law of heaven, by shedding man's blood, seldom succeed in avoiding discovery. '���������������������������'Especially in a case exciting so mil eh attention as this, discovery suii.t come, will come, sooner or later. A thousand eyes turn at once to explore evcry "iiiii. everything, every circumstance, connected with ihe time and place; ii thousand ears catch every whisper; a thousand excited minds intensely dwell on the scene, shedding all their light, and ready to kindle the slightest circumstance into a blaze of discovery. _ ������������������������������������������������������.Meantime thc guilty sold CANNOT KEEP ITS OWN SECRET;' It is false to itself: or rather it feels an irresistible impulse of conscience to be true to itself. It labors under its guilty possession, and knows not what to do with it. Thc human heart was not made for" "the residence of such an inhabitant.

The Balkan region nuiy bu called above all things 'the land of confusion. Jt is (he land of war, the land of rapine, of cruelty, of treachery, of tyranny, of almc..t all thl's evil, bin. above all it is the land ot' confusion. It has been so for 1,500 years. Tho confusion began with that invasion of barbarians which overthrow the Roman Empire. The wild tribes which riw.pt down over the Carpathians or in ���������������������������.from the steppes of Russia found it in the enjoyment of the Greek and Koiniin ' civilizations. Some of them swept on, some settled down in the region between .the Adriatic and the Black Sea. They tangled up tho civilization they found with their own barbaric customs. They created a racial confusion which is still at th������������������ bottom of all the other confusions that make up thc Balkan problem. In a ���������������������������'Vritory not much bigger than France Acre are to be found to-day thc d .tin., survivals-of three races going .back to primitive limes.' The Albanian, 'Rumanian and Greek peoples' are lineal descendants of peoples who have held the country since immemorial time... Thc Albanians are of the eld Hlyria . stock. Every one knows who the Greeks are. The Rumanians are nobody quite knows who, but most likely the Thra- clans of old days with a strong Roman modification, not to speak of various subsequent admixtures. Mixture indeed is the racial law of'the 'Balkans. Only the Ulyrian blood is approximately pure. Even the'Greeks of to-day have a large percentage of Slavic blood in them. o The original Bulgars were a J'inno- Taxtar peaple, akin to the Magyars. But the race has been so nearly asimilaled by the'Slavic people, whom they found in the regions where they settled that the present ' Lulgari-tn.;, despite the name, are far more Slav than Turanian in their, characteristics. Next after thc Illyrians, or Albanians, the Serbs aro the purest blooded Balkan people. But they are a comparatively i.<cnt arrival. Tho. are probably 90 per cent. Slavic. The race has been only slightly modified by the peoples whom they overthrow and intermarried with when Ihey took possession of Servia, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Novibazar and Montenegro, where they now make up a majority of the population. ��������������������������� Tangle of Population. Bui the racial confusion is not in tlie blood alone. It is still more remarkable in the matter of location. For instance, of thc -_,0O0,00O Bulgars who live in the Ualkans only about 2,- 700,000 live in Bulgaria itself, while the rest inhabit Russia, Rumania, Austria, Hungary and the Turkish provinces, especially Macedonia. On the other hand, the balance of the 4,000,000 population of Bulgaria is made up of Turks, Rumanians, Greeks, Gypsies (52,000 of them), Spanish Jews (27,500), Ta.rtai'3 and samples oi all the other nationalities . of Europe. ������������������There are to-day 8,000,000 Serbs, but only 2,500,000 of'thera live in Servia. Tlie rest are scattered over Montenegro. Bosnia, Herzegovina., No vi bazar, Croatia,. Slavonia, South Hungary, Istria.and .Dal- matio. In Rumania 92. per'cent, of the people are VVallachs���������������������������that is, Rumanians ���������������������������but, only half of the Rumanian race inhabits that kingdom, the other half being found in Transylvania, which is 'Ab-trian; in Bessarabia, now under Russian rule; in Servia and m Bulgaria. Tho Albanians, or Arnauts���������������������������tlicy call ^~ii.:.Tfi_I. elT Sli_i~petW^^^ kept their territory pretty'fice of strangers. They are pcrbate the wildest people in the world, and it is said that only Pyrrhus the Great ever conquered the"m_ but besides the '2,000,000 of them inhabiting Albania, the western shore of the Adriatic south of Montenegro, there are 200,000 of them in Greece'and 100,- 000 iu southern Italy. As for Macedonia, lo describe the effusion _of races.is almost impossible. Tho characteristic fact is the tendency of fill the races to flock by themselves." There i������������������ mixture in thc towns aud :r..i . aro a few villages in which Turks, ltulgars and Greeks live together, but for tho most part each of these three j .oples has its own settlements. You will find a Bulgarian village more Bulgarian than any in Prince Ferdinand's dominions, and a few miles from it there will be a Greek village as Greek as any in 'the Peloponnesus. Making a triangle with the other two, a Turkish village will be found vihcre every man wearg a fV* and every woman goes veiled. The Religious War. Thc tangle of religions is almost equally remarkable. There are the Mohammedans and there are the Christians, but there are Christians of thc Orthodox Greek Church, whom the Roman Catholics call schismatic, and there are Christians of the other Greek Church, ���������������������������whom the Roman Catholics call orthodox and who are allied to Rome through the hierarchy of the Grecian Kingdom. It may fairly be said that the hatred between the two sects of Christians is often more bitter than that between Christian and Turk. It is a leading if not the leading factor in the Macedonian troubles of to-day, and the unspeakable atrocities which make Macedonia the most distressful country in the world are just as frequently perpetrated by Greek Catholics upon Bulgarian orthodox churchmen or by Bulgarians upon Greek Catholics as by the Mohammedans upon cither. The Greek Church is the church of the majority of the people and it is the State church in Bulgaria, Servia and Ron. mania. In Bosnia those of the Greek orthodox communion are about 43 per cent, of the population, the Mohamme dans about ;:,-> and tiie lloman Catholics 21. Jn Albania the great majority of'the people are Mohammedan... tlumg'h fiercely hostile to the Turkish Government. j There are, however, about 200,000 Chris- Linus equally divided between the two sects who hate each other, the Mohammedans, Albanians and the Turks, with an impartial hatred. Bulgarian Greatness. All thc multiform 'hatred? which keep Hie Balkan peoples seething in disorder and bloodshed are centuries old in their origin. There were the Bulgarians, for instance, who already in the sixth century were at war with Lhe emperors of Constantinople, who, converted io Christianity in the ninth century, reached such power in the tenth" that their ruler, Symeon, assumed the title of Czar of all the Bulgarias���������������������������the title just revived by Prince Ferdinand���������������������������and ruled over a territory extending from th. Black Sea- to the Adriatic and almost from the Carpathians south to Adrianople. This great monarchy was overthrown about the year 1000 A. D.. and we find the Byzantine Emperor, Basil II., completing its subjection in 1020, when he stormed the palace of Lychnidus, and foiuid in it a treasure of*10,000 pounds weight of gold, equal in value, perhaps, to.,$2,000,000. His method of signalizing his conquest was characteristic ot^ the age. He caused 15,000 of his captives to be blinded. But to one out of every 100 men he spared a single eye, in order that they might lead the whole lamentable phalanx to their King, a fugitive 'in some mountain fastness. It is related that he died of horror on beholding them. Is it wonderful that the Bulgar hates the Greek? Servia's Heroic Perio'd. Servia also has its heroic period. In J050 Michael, its Grand Shupan, was recognized as an independent sovereign by Pope Gregory VII. Its power reached a climax between 1331 and 1335, when Stephen Dushan called himself the Emperor of the Rumclians and ruled over a territory which embraced Bosnia, Albania, Macedonia, Thessaly, part of Bulgaria and Greece as far-as the Isthmus of Corinth. Stephen Dushan is the great hero of Servian legend... "'He lies buried in the Studenitza Monastery in Servia, and when King Peter wa* called to the throne he made a pilgrimage thither and kissed the dead Emperor's brow. The. remains, wrapped in their ancient winding sheet, are encased iu a coffin of black wood and on the breast lies a golden crucifix containing in the ecntre a particle of the True Cross. Thero. is an outer coffin also which was presented by the ancestors of King Peter, the Kar- ageorgovitches. It- is a massive affair of silver with a crimson velvet top and a great silver cross upon it. When the Obrenovitches were in power in Servia this gorgeous casement wit hidden away in the cellar oi'the monastery and King Alexander and Queen Praga presented a wonderful set of golden vestments to be used in the great ceremonies of the monastery church. Nowadays the vestments are in hiding in the cellar and the silver coffin is in ,evidence again. The Servians expect the Emperor Stephen to reappear a3 a sort of a Messiah. Turkish Conquest. ' The overthrow of Servia was finally completed".} yHhe^Sultun���������������������������Mohammed^!!��������������������������� who, having taken Constantinople in 145.'.. devoted his attention to lhe Balkan region. From this time until the beginning of the nineteenth century Servia had practically no history, but an offshoot from its people kept up the fight against the Turks unceasingly and without ever being overcome. After the battle of Kossovo, in 1.S9, a band oi refugees under one Ivo, the black, took possession of- the rugged mountain tract just above Callaro, on the Adriatic shores. The region wus named Tzarnagora, or tlto Black Mountain, the Montenegro of to-day, Jvo is another of the heroes whom thc Serbs expect to come back some day nnd help drive the Turk-, out of Europe. The -Montenegrins still wear a badge of mourning in their caps for him. His spirit has certainly been continually olive in the little-realm that ho founded. Under its Prince Bishops, who succeeded each other for more than three centuries from uncle to nephew, Montenegro hu3 not only resisted Turkish conquest but has frequently sent armies out into Xovibazar and Macedonia and inflicted tremendous losses upon the soldiers'of the Porte. The Great Awakening. It is a singidar circumstance thai the awakening ugainst the Turkish domination which lasted for nearly 350 years after thc conquest showed itself in several regions about the same time. Just at the period when Alexander Ypsilante was putting an.end to Turkish misrule in the country wltich is now Rumania, the Greeks were starting that heroic struggle for independence in which Lord Byron played a picturesque part. The Servians simultaneously begun a bitter and determined fight to throw off Turkish rule. In 180-1 Kara George, who was certainly a peasant and perhaps a brigand, finding that he wu. down on a list of persona to be massacred, took to the mountains and raised the standard of revolt. He defeated the Turkish foiee and. in 1300 he took possession of Belgrade. The Russians helped hini for a while, then deserted him, and he was obliged "THECGWBdY - - BARONET.

The Turks swept over the country in 1814 with murder and pillage. ��������������������������� They crucified 800 Christians at Belgrade. But now one of the lieutenants of Kara George began to loom up with new strength. This as ililosch Obrenovitch, also a peasant, a swineherd who had acted as spy _"cr Kara George in thc early part of the struggle. His bands in 1S15 made sain headway against the Turks that the Sultan was fortsed to make terms with him. Kra George came back into the.country, but Miloseh betrayed him to the Turks, 4who killed him. Rivalry thus removed, Miloseh had himself proclaimed i_ 1817 hereditary, prince of Servia. In 1830 the autonomy of the principality was recognized by the Porte and then began its turbulent career as a European State. The descendants of Kara. George and .of Miloseh intrigued and conspired for the throne. 'J'he Obrenovitches were deposed' iu 3842 and the Karagorgovitches seized the title of prince. A few years later a prince of their line was assassinated and thc Obrenovitches came back, and thus it was that Prince Milan, an Obrenovitch, found himself on the throne at the era of the Eusso-Turkish Avar. Another region in which the standard of revolt was raised in the beginning of the nineteenth century was the southern section of Albania, where the famous or infamous Ali Pasha, the lioTt of Jan- ina, established for a few brief years a sort of independent power. Those who are interested in-his career can gain a good view of it on easy terms from Maurus Jokai's novel "The Lion of Jan- ina." Bulgarian Atrocities. All these struggles in th. early part of the nineteenth century brought free- ^o=iTr__^ne~degree~o"r"auother_to "th<r plir? ticipating states. Another fierce struggle against the Turks began in 1875. Jn these matters there seems-to be a sort of contagion. It is certain that au epidemic of unrest ran through thc Balkan peninsula in that year. Bulgaria, which had. been so enslaved as to be called the peasant slate, after centuries of submission, showed signs of awakening. The brutalities of Turkish rule seemed to bo_brought to a head Iry the establishment of a Cireassion colony in the heart of the country. The peasantry revolted and the Basin Bazouks, the Turkish irregular soldiery, maintained especially for purposes of atrocity, were sent in lo put down the uprising. Tho populutiou. of towns and villages were wiped out. The houses were burned, the women outraged or carried off to Turkish harems, children were slaughtered in their mother's arms, and men were burned alive in tlie churches, hundreds at a time. When the news of these doings were spread through ICurope by Jaimarius Aloysius .lacGalian, the famous correspondent of the I-iidon Daily Telegraph, there was an uncontrollable outburst of horror, and thc rule of the Turk iu the devastated regions was doomed. But simultaneously with Uic Bulgarian insurrection thc Servians under Prince Milan had declared war on Turkey. The troops sent against them also wasted their country with murder and pillage. Ju Bosnia and Herzegovina was also u revolt and also more atrocities. Montenegro declared war on (ho Sultan and an army of brave mountaineers marched into Macedonia. Wherever the Sultan's troops went to oppose them, there also were unspeaahle cruelties committed on thc Christian population. It was expected that England would take the lead in ending this domination of murder, lust and robbery; but England, under Gladstone, temporized, and negotiated; Russia went to war, and with the Rumanians, Servians and Montenegrins as her allies, drove the Turks back past Plevna and Shipka Pass, over the Balkans into -Rumelia and as far south almost as Adrianople, when the Sultan gave way and'signed the treaty of San Stefano, by which he. Btirren- the last thirty years; the trade of the country has been greatly increased; its industries and agriculture are flourishing. Its government, however, has been a troublous affair. King Milan found the. debaucheries of Paris nnd Vienna more to his taste than ruling over the Servians. lie abdicated the throne in 188., turning' it over to Alexander,, still so young that a Council of Regency had to be established. One fine day when he was about. 18 Alexander asserted himself, lie seized the reins of power and clapped all the regents in prison, and then followed l-l years of capricious rule, such as might be expected of a boy wlio was half a genius, half an idiot. Tlie end came in June, 1903. ' Some say it was an Austrian plot to cause chaos which would have justified thc Austro- Hungarian Kaiser in seizing and annexing Servia in his dominions. Others hold that the endurance* of .Alexander had reached-its limit and that it was to prevent savage despoti.m and masa- crc that regicide was decided on. Anyway, the fact.is that on the night of June 10th the regiments quartered in the capital surrounded the royal palace, and after a.long and fevered-search, in the course of which some faithful attendants were struck.down. a band of officers found Alexander and "Draga hiding in their ni .lit robes and killed them both.

MOFFET Bniorby Building Enderby Right PERHAPS the wish is I father of the thought; we do not know. But Enderby of the future is pictured in our minds as a | city of great beauty and in- i dustrial importance. We see the feeder of another transcontinental railway entering the Okanagan, the steel rails following the Spallumcheen river down the .Mabel Lake valley, into Enderby, thence south to the immense mineral fields of theSimilkameen which are yet undeveloped, and opening a country greater in resources than even the Okanagan now is. We see a great power house erected at the Skookum Chuck, supplying juice to all the Okanagan towns, and the power for an electric railway that will tap Grand Prairie and all the vast country between these points. Some may smile at this, but it is coming, sooner perhaps than most of us realize. Last July, Mr. F. Waby was slashing a few acres on his Arlington Heights garden home. Mr. Wet-blanket came along and was doing. '���������������������������Clearing," derby's future; seeing the city in the light of what it is to be, not what it is, it behooves us to build right when we build at all. The laying of 2-plank sidewalks where If $3,000 or $4,000 were put into the purchase and planting of a city square now, it would be paid for in ten years and nobody would feel the strain, whereas if we wait they'should be 4-f oot and 6- j ten years, we shall pay ten foot is false economy. The' or twenty times the present he ans. Apent for thc Fnir banks-Morse Gasoline en_inn what _ efed Mr. Waby. "What are you clearing this land for?" persisted Mr. Wetblanket. "To crop it,"answeredthe man who knew how. "You'll never live to crop it!"drawled Mr. Wetblanket. But Mr. Waby is supplying Enderby with succulent spring vegetables already from this land. You see, we must know how and understand before we can realize how rapidly things can be done if we get after them. _^T^ith_this^vJsion=jof=_En_. laying of a 1-inch water pipe on the side streets, where the water main should be extended is a waste of public funds. When we build, let us build so it does not have to be done over again every year. Aid. Evans, at the next meeting of the City Council will introduce a by-law to raise the sum of $4,000 for the erection of a City Hall. The intention is, of course, that it shall be erected on the city's lot, corner Cliff and George streets. Every citizen realizes the immediate need of a city hall, but there is a difference of opinion as to the advisability of erecting it on the proposed site. ^ It is the common conception, whether a mistake or not, that a city hall and court house should be set out amongst the trees, on. the city square, and not chucked up against the corner grocery. Not that this conception is at all logical, but it is custom. There is no doubt but that the corner grocery ���������������������������the commercial side of life ���������������������������is just as dignified and quite as important as the judicial or the religious, and "it need not in any way detract from the dignity of either. But the thought back of the objection raised building- on the corner lot value, and we should, in ad dition to this, lose the ten year's growth in the trees. The idea as we understand it is to ask the city council to increase the proposed loan from $4,000 to a sum sufficient to purchase and plant trees upon a square suitable for park purposes, on which the city hall will be erected. Just what position.the provincial government will take in the matter is yet to be seen. Two months ago the assurance was given of the government's willingness to join with the city in the erection of the city hall and court house, but since that assurance was given, all the efforts of the city to get a definite statement from the government have resulted in failure. It is not Enderby's policy to wait on the provincial government. The city submitted a plain business proposition, giving the province every advantage. But1 the city is not going to play the dilly-dally game. If the provincial government does not know a good thing when it sees it, it is not the city's fault; if the government will not act, the city will not delay the erection of the city hall. It will be erected this summer. We believe the people of Enderby are so much in earnest in the matter of building the city "from the ground up," that they will not stop at an additional expense of $3,000 or $4,000. if there can be acquired for the outlay an asset so valuable as a city park and court house grounds. Occasionally we find an individual who looks upon these things as an uncalled-for expense, but we may as well attempt to make home without flowers as to attempt to build a city without parks and play grounds. These are the essentials in city life, not the non-essentials. They make for., the- betterment of the city, just as the flower garden makes for the betterment of the home.

In the report of the Presbyterian Synod, recently held, the statement is made that "while there has been no campaign by local option methods, ... in several places where the municipal elections were fought out on this issue temperance candidates were elected. In Armstrong, Langley, Central Park and Mt. Pleasant and Fairview, successful efforts were made." All of which is a surprise to the Armstrong Advertiser, and causes it to remark: "So the municipal election's were fought out on a temperance issue! This will be news to many ratepayers. The only issues before the ratepayers were the borrowing of money for permanent road work, or an increase in taxes and the repeal of the dog tax. Never a word relating to temperance, when each candidate had his say on nomination day. But according to report, temperance was an issue. Is it to be understood that the leaders of this party on the quiet made it so? Does this explain their great activity on election day? . . . Why this method of accomplishing an object? Nothing was ever gained by fooling the people. Is a party that has so much good on its side afraid to come out openly and squarely? The majority must always rule whether the minority like it or not, but the ratepayers did not have a chance to decide; it was not before them."

NEWS FROM THE OLD LAND
Many Interesting Happenings Reported from
Great Britain.
OWM
WtMMMMNMMM
(London Daily Mail.)
3,000,000 TONS OF SNOW.
Au army of 30,000 men, whose weapons were shovels, more than 1.000 carts,
..nit by thc hundreds of tons, many snow-
plows, miles of hose-pipe, and hissing
jets of steam, entered into the fight
which was waged throughout London on
\Y_dnt.clay to rid the strce'ts of their
clogging caq>c-t.
Tli. storm of thc previous night had
deposited more than 3,000.000 tons of
snow uipon thc streets of London���������a
calculation made possible by the street
cleansing department of the ci'ty corporation.
Thc sti-uggle to sweep away the snow
began in th. silent hours before dawn,
when tli. great city lay white and unsullied. It continued when London's mil-
liana, awakening to the movement of .a
new day, had trodden the floor of whi'ce
into a mire of dirty brown. At midday,
when a, fog crept up that matched in
color the dispirtiing mounds that lined
the streets, the snow-shovellers still toiled���������.a damp, cheerless host���������under the
gleam of the street lamps, with sodden
feet and numbed hands. But many of
them, although they shivered and were
hungry, conjured up a whistle or thc
fragment of a song. For weeks���������in many
cii.es for months���������they had stood about
miserably at street corners. Now they
were working hard tuid earning money���������
only a shilling or so, it is true, but they
blessed the coming of the snow. For
Wednesday's clearing work in tlie streets
.���������ind for. the two previous days, London
will have io pay a bill of quite ������20,000.
the English.situation, ,that the German
Patent Law contains a paragraph which
could be employed for reUlia'.orv purposes, but that it is practically "illusory"
because few Englishmen arc in possession
of German patents. . .
The Berliner Tagebla_t urges Germany
to open negotiations with Britain for the
conclusion of a reciprocity patent treaty
on lines of thc one recently en'tercd into
with America. ' .
GERMANS AND PATENT ACT.
Widespread alarm is manifest in German industrial circles over growing indications of the rigorous enforcement of
the new British Patent Act.
The German chemical industry particularly is filled with misgiving.. It has information to .the effect" that the so-called
"anti-Gcrman'.radc crusade" will shortly
be aggravated by thc passage of laws
conferring preferential treatment upon
imports of artificial indigo from India.
rJ _is would deal a heavy blow to German
chemical factories, which have built up
an enormous irade in that product in
Great Britain.
German merchants are also perturbed"
by the announcement that a private organization .has been formed to keep
close watch upon foreign-plated .articles
in Britain, and report to the" Comptroller
of Patents if the patentees are seeking
to evade the provisions of thc new Act.
It is poinW out, in commenting on
PRAYER FOR LANDLORDS.
inons on Monday questioned the Prime
Minister upon the advisability of restoring to the Prayer Book the following
prayer from the Liturgy, of Edward VI.:
The earth is Thine,. 0 Lord, and all
that is contained therein. . . . We
hearti'y pray Thee to 'send Thy Holy
Spirit into the hearts of them that pos-
S\r John Benn in the House of Coiu-
sess the grounds, pastures and dwelling
places of the earth, that they, remembering themselves to be Thy tenants, may
not rack and stretch out the rents of
their house and land*, nor yet take unreasonable fines and incomes after the
manner of covetous worldlings,' tut so
le. them out to others that the inhabitants thereof may both be able to pay the
rents, and also honestly to live, to nourish their families and to relieve thc poor
_ . . not join house'to house, nor
couple-land, to land, to the impoverishment of others, but so behave themselves
in letting ont their tenements, lands, and
pastures, that after this life they may be
received into everlasting dwelling places;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
Mr. Asquith, in reply, said his hon.
friend had, he thought, done a, public service by reviving-the recollection of tins
remarkable prayer, but he did not think
any advantage would be gained by his
taking the steps suggested.
The matter then dropped.
MRS. DESPARD FREED.
Mrs. Despard, who! went to jail for a
month last week in connection with an
attempt to interview Mr.-������A'squith at the
House of Commons, was' released from
Hollo way one Wednesday . afternoon \>y

"Medical grounds," was the reason
given by Mr. Gladstone, in the House of
Commons and by the prison governor.

THE LONDON POLICE

Do Not Make.
Wonderful Results Are Obtained

i.ae_n_._..
Yet metlical men neglected to employ this
natural curative agency for diseases of the
throat, lunas and nasal j>a_sai?cs until thu
wonderful results which attended the Catarr-
ho_one dry air method were brought to their
'notice and compelled attention.
The air of th������ \yine woods, charged with
litt . drops of baleani and ozone, has been
echa.ced by tho Catarrhozone method through
tho addition, of vegetable antiseptics more
powerfully healing than the air of the pine
woods.
The balsamic and healing vegetable compound is broken up by the air INTO Ml?>:-

of the lungs, throat and nasal passages���������in

Failure is Impassible
- .
You can now understand why Catarrh ozone
cures with such ccrtainity, it is medicated
air carried to the seat of bronchitic congestion or situation where tho micro-organisms
,which excite asthma or hay fever exert their
baneful and dangerous influence.
The air distributes evenly over the entire
diseased surfaces a covering of he-aling Catarrhozone., Immediately congestion is re-
lioved, inflammation is subdued, the microbes
which oau_o the trouble are destroyed, and-
cure follows as inevitably as the sun follows
tho night.
Thousands Cured Daily
_ Xo other medicine, has achieved such remarkable success, and to-day not less than
twenty thousand physicians in America alone
arc prescribing Catarrhozone. And why?
Simply because they realize that a healing
remedy like Catarrhozone, which air carries
direct to the sore, inflamed membranes is
bound to euro every form of Catarrh, oil
.tynes of bronchitis and throat trouble, and
will almost instantly stamp out coughs, colds,
sneezing and bronchial deafness.
Catarrhozone Cures Quickly
The reputation of Catarrhozone has grown
by leaps and bounds. It reaches thc diseased
spot. It cures speedily. Almost thc first
use gives such relief in the worst- cases that
most people cannot understand its action.

most kindly received by the matron and

"and from first to last' not one rough
or unkind word was spoken. One wardress in the hospital was, in fact, most
charming. I was in the hospital ward,
where there is special diet, but I was
told that the other prisoners were now
allowed as much milk as they wanted.
The associated labor is another - . great
boon, and the rules against speaking are
considerably relaxed���������but no one must
speak above a whisper. Tlie prison
clothes, too. are quite new.
"Mrs. 1-trick Lawrence is in the hospital, but she is very well indeed. I also met Lady Constance Lvtton in hospital."
PENALTIES UNDER ACT.
A striking notice printed in red ink
has been posted in the windows of many
ironmongers' r shops in London calling
attention to the ��������� penalty of HO which
may be inflicted after April 1 upon any
person over thc age of sixteen who
leaves a fire unguarded and thereby
causes injury by burning or scalding to
a child under seven.
The policy of (],e 1'olice Department of
London is unique and differs from that
oi other cities iu 0110 very important
..'Articular. A patrolman, or a ' ''constable,''' as they officially call-the members of thc rank and file, are commended for the arrests they do not
make. Tlie constable who brings in the
..mall.st' number of prisoners,' who appear, most infrequently as a prosecuting witness in a .police' court; receives
the highest credit. The officer who can
settle difficulties on .is beat outside
tlw station', and does not trouble the
police .judges is considered thc most
capable and efficient iu the. performance of his duty.
This, of course, does not refer to
penal offences, to burglary, larceny,
murder or similar, crimes, but to petty
offence,, such as assaults and-disorderly conduct which, make up the
greater part - of the 'business of the
police courts of our cities. When the
London policeman finds two men quarrelling he endeavors to reconcile "them.
When he finds a drunken man he takes
him home; when lie catches a boy pilfering he talks to him kindly and cautions him not to do it again"; after the
second offence he takes him to oho of
���������the many private institutions for the
reformation of the young, and thiis protects the urchin from the stigma that
a police court always,leaves.
TIIE FRIEND OF THE PEOPLE.
Thus the policeman, is the friend
rail .r-than the foe of the people on his
beat, and they know that he is trying
to help them up rather than" keep them
down. 'That accounts, in a'great, degree, for the respect that is shown the
constables -in London, and'for the influence they exert. Nowhere else in
thc world is police authority obeyed so
promptly and perfectly as in-London,
and the criminal statistics very seldom
show any cases of "resisting an officer,"
which is so frequent an offence in this
country. Nor do you often hear of a
London policeman being killed or injured in the performance of his duty.
The policeman is- strictly .enjoined by
ihe regulations to remember at all times
that he has no personal -.. interest.- to
serve in making an arrest "or securing
a conviction of the offender. He is required to practise a self-control- which
would not be expected of any other occupation. He" knows that, he will ��������� be
praised if hc can settle a case out of
court, and if it should ever appear that
he has improperly attempted to. influ-'
ence the judgment of 11 magistrate
against.the prisoner he knows that-he
will be severely dealt with.
KINDNESS" VERSUS FORCE.
The same consideration is enjoined
upon officers in charge of ploice stations. No prisoner is treated as guilty;
they act on the theory that sympathy
and kindness will cure crime quicker
limn severity.

he has-the appearance of a gentleman,

This provision of the
Act is causing a 6inall
"Do you know of any woman who ever received any
benefit from taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound?"
-If any woman who is suffering-with any ailment peculiar
to her sex will ask her neighbors this question, .she will be
surprised at the result. There is hardly a community in
this country where women cannot be found who have been
restored to health by this famous old remedy, made
exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs.
During the past 30 years we have published thousands
of letters from these grateful women who have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and never
in all that time have we published a testimonial without
the writer's special permission. Never have we knowingly
published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine.
Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts
that this is a true and honest statement of a woman's experience with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound write
and ask her. .
Canifton, Out. ���������"I had been a great sufferer for five years.
One doctor told me it was ulcers of the uterus, and another
told me it was a fibroid tumor. Xo one knows what I suffered.
I would always be worse at certain periods, and never was regular, and the bearing-down pains were terrible. I was very ill
in bed, and the doctor told me I would have to have an operation, and that I might _ie during the operation. I wrote to my
sister about it and sho advised mc to take Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. Through personal experience X have
found it the best medicine in the world for female troubles, for
it has cured me, and I did not have to have the operation after
all. Tlie Compound also helped me while passing through
Change of Life."���������Mrs. Lctitia'Blair, Canifton, Ontario.
Any woman who is sick and suffering is foolish surely
not to give such a medicine as this a trial. Why should it ���������
not clo her as much good as it did Mrs. Blair.

Flight of Snowy Owls.
A remarkable and beautiful flight of
snowy whito owls was witnessed in La
Porte City yesterday afternoon. There
were about forty of the birds, and they
stopped to rest in the pine trees in the
residence district. Many people witnessed the unusual migratory movement,
and the birds, with their" snow white
amid barred plumage, attracted much
attention,
The snowy owl is a nativo of the far
north, subsisting ou small animals and
scraps of meat left by thc polar bear
and other animals of pray. The male
bird is large and snowy white, and the
female i.s smaller and has barred plumage. They arc a species of owl bhat
hunt and fly in the daytime.���������Waterloo

to Ui grand divisions and 8,000 subdivisions. Thc organization is so perfect that the Commissioner of Police
at Scotland Yard may know at any
moment the exact place where any
patrolman could be found, and a sergeant or an inspector or a fellow patrolman knows where to look for him when
help, advice or instruction is needed.
There are 30 superintendents, ..09 inspectors, 2,4S0 sergeants nnd 115,2-10 constables, making a total of nearly 20,000
men, so thoroughly organized that they

are employed to serve is far more intimate than that of any other police force
in thc world.

competition. Any young man between
21 and 27 years of age, who brings certificates of "sober habit.," "honest

from five householders who have known
him personally for five years, may apply for appointment on the force. ITe

.���������_.l THE ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY May 20, 1909 "Our Jimmy" Killed. One of the saddest accidents which has ever disturbed the community occurred on Wednesday evening last, resulting in the death of Jimmy Baker. The little fellow was returning to his home about 6 o'clock with a colt which had been pastured near Mr. Finn's place on Schubert street, and to better carry the chain with which the horse was tethered wound it around his arm and had taken a turn or two about his body. It is supposed he was playing with his lacrosse stick, when the animal took fright and started to run, the boy holding back as best he could. He held his feet successfully until within a few feet of the railway, when he fell and was dragged with terrific violence against the rails, the impact fracturing his skull and killing him instantly. The body was dragged across the railway where the rope became unwound, thus freeing the animal. The little lad was known by almost everybody in the community, where his bright ways had made him a general favorite, and the sudden and violent manner of his death is keenly regretted by all. The bereaved family are deeply pitied and the warmest sympathy of the citizens is extended to them in their distress. ���������������������������Vernon Okanagan.
